Loading insta-disk

First day here and loving it. bought a //e cheap. the owner did not want it. i attempted to load disk it failed so i tried cassette load and it attempts to load 3.3 dos up to 19 sec then errors out. I am using asciiexpress files. it error out to the astric sign and I believe it dumped me into assembler. I am wondering if there may be a chip on the MB that got fried. I have tried to load with and without FD i/o board and same thing happens. tried to figure it out thru schematics but to no avail. I have tried to load other things like apple presents and it does the same thing. anthony

Hello,thanks for the reply.

so at this point I am getting a disk error form the floppy drive just before the format routine. so I am not sure if its a floppy issue or a drive issue. floppies will be here thursday.

Asciiexpress.net they have audio files in wav format to load thru the cassette port of the //e

the floppy drive is a 19 pin unit with an I/O board 655-0101-B
